v2.5.0-alpha01

[nsh07]

New features:

• Completely revamped navigation system for pages: navigating back is now instant and supports predictive back animations on Android 13+ (Nav3 back stack based page loading #241, also significantly improves the UX of Implement caching for previously browsed pages #55)
• The app now follows the M3 Expressive guidelines more closely ([FEATURE] More M3 Expressive changes #238):
  • Selected items in the language bottom sheet are now fully rounded
  • Clicking and holding on an item in the language bottom sheet now morphs its shape into a fully rounded shape
• The app now uses a rounded icon style for a more consistent look across other apps developed by me

Please report any bugs that you find with the new system, I really appreciate any reports!
